The plugin exposes a single command, :Modsearch
, which modifies the last performed search in a particular way, determined by its argument. For instance, after:
/foobar
:Modsearch word
The current search term will now be not foobar
, but \<foobar\>
. You can use the unword
modifier to remove the word limitation.
Currently, the available commands are:
word
: Wraps the last search term in word boundariesunword
: Removes word boundaries from the last search termignore-syntax-comment
: Changes the search to ignore commentsignore-syntax-string
: Changes the search to ignore strings
For the modifiers that ignore comments and strings, bear in mind that the pattern is invalidated if the buffer is changed. That's because they're implemented by specifically excluding particular line/column pairs.
